New B2 Miami Hotel On The Biscayne Bay Block

Seems like this is the week for Miami, as the southern city rolls out more hotel news. This time we’re told a new kid on the block wants to play with the big dogs. It’s called theb2 hotel, a new concept hotel from B Hotels & Resorts.

We have to remember not everyone wants to be beachside when visiting Miami, so this Downtown property, which opens in March, is of interest, especially to those who want to be in proximity to Biscayne Bay, the Port of Miami and the American Airlines Arena.
Reservations opened yesterday for the 243-room hotel, which will court guests with its Blissful Bed (anyone ever slept on one of these?), free WiFi, and in-room Smart HD LED interactive televisions.

B2 will also feature a new restaurant from Jeffrey Chodorow of China Grill Management. Called Biscayne Tavern, the casual resto will have over 30 craft beers available that will go along with dishes like Oyster Po-Boys and short rib pot roast with truffle popovers.
Special introductory offers will give up to 25% off on the best available rate for stays from March 1 through September 30, 2013.

Although when we plugged in a variety of dates for March and April, we came up empty for rates, which we wonder if that means the hotel is already sold out (it will be Spring Break after all), or their res system hasn’t caught up with their news machine.
